Temperature, Egg Size, and Development of Embryos and Alevins of Five Species of Pacific Salmon: A Comparative Analysis TERRY D. BEACHAM AND CLYDE B. MURRAY Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Biological Sciences Branch Pacific Biological Station Nanaimo. British Columbia V9R 5K6, Canada Abstract.—We examined rate of development to alevin hatching and fry emergence, embryo and alevin survival, and alevin and fry size for five Pacific salmon species. There was little difference among values for hatching and emergence time predicted by a modified thermal sums model, power law model (log-inverse Belehradek), or quadratic model. Coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch had the fastest rates of development to hatching and emergence of the five species investigated; rankings for the other species depended upon temperature range. Coho salmon embryos had the highest survival rates at low incubation (1.5°C) temperatures. Embryos of pink salmon O. gorbuscha had the lowest survival at temperatures less than 4°C. For all five species, incubation temperature was the more important factor in determining alevin length, and egg size was the more important factor in determining alevin weight. Egg weight was a mayor determinant of fry weight at emergence. Rates of development to hatching and emergence, and alevin and fry size, differed by species in response to changes in temperature. Coho salmon alevins and fry were proportionately larger at 4°C than at 8°C or 12°C, but alevins and fry of pink salmon and chum salmon O. keta were largest at 8°C. Variation in development characters of Pacific salmon reflected adaptations to each species* life history pattern. Variation in life history characters of Pacific salmon can be extensive, both among the five North American species and among spawning populations within species. Spawning time varies among and within species, and spawning times of specific populations are often related to specific water temperatures (Sheridan 1962; Brannon 1987). Embryos and alevins can be exposed to a wide temperature range during development, yet the effect of temperature regime on survival and development to fry emergence remains poorly documented, particularly at low temperatures (Alderdice and Velsen 1978; Crisp 1981, 1988). Water temperature has been the primary factor investigated in development rate studies (Embody 1934; Bailey and Evans 1971; Tang et al. 1987), but egg size (Rombough 1985) and genetic vari-
ation (Beacham 1988) have also been investigat-
ed. Accurate prediction of hatching and emergence times is of practical interest in salmon culture (Rombough 1985), and some attempts have been made for some specific salmonid species (Alderdice and Velsen 1978; Crisp 1981, 1988; Jungwirth and Winkler 1984; Humpesch 1985; Tang et al. 1987; Elliott et al. 1987). Crisp (1988) indicated that the ideal approach would be to establish a set of curves relating times of hatching and emergence to temperature for each salmonid species. This has not yet been done in a systematic manner for Pacific salmon, but we have attempted this task in our study. In our investigations of Pacific salmon development, we examined variation in a number of

Hatching and emergence timing. —The data base we used was derived from Velsen (1987), and additional data on hatching and emergence times were obtained from the references in Appendix Table A. 1. Ten models were fitted to the hatching and emergence times for each species. For each model, D was the observed hatching or emergence time after fertilization; T was the observed mean temperature (°Q; S was the timing of spawning in the population (days after January 1); and a, b, c, and d were the constants we obtained from the fitted data. We used hatching and emergence data from both constant and variable incubation regimes. Data were transformed to natural logarithms (base e) in all models. Nonlinear models were fitted by the simplex method of parameter estimation, and the standard deviations of the parameter estimates were calculated as in Mittertreiner and Schnute (1985). The comparison of model performance required that a common data base be used for all models. Because some models (5 and 6) required knowledge of population spawning time, some data for each species were omitted if spawning time was unknown. Data for pink salmon were separated into the brood line of origin (populations spawning in either odd- or even-numbered years), because there are significant differences in developmental characters between pink salmon in the two brood lines (Beacham and Murray 1988). The first six equations we examined were variants of a power law model (Alderdice and Velsen
The goodness of fit of each model was evaluated by examining the residual sum of squares between observed and predicted values. Variation in hatching and emergence times was also analyzed by a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA); species, temperature, and speciestemperature interaction were the sources of variation in the model. Class width for temperatures was set at 1°C intervals. Embryo and alevin survival.— We derived embryo and alevin survival rates with respect to temperature from the data compiled by Velsen ( 1 987), supplemented by additional sources (Appendix Table A. 1 ). Survival rate data were used only when they were derived from constant-temperature experiments. Unweighted mean survival rates were determined for 0.5°C temperature intervals, and the results were plotted. The lower and upper temperatures at which 50% of embryos died were determined by inspection of the plotted data for each species. The upper and lower temperatures at which 50% of alevins died could not be determined for any species. This occurred because embryos were more sensitive to extreme temperatures during development than were alevins, and the death of embryos resulted in no data for alevins. Alevin and fry size.— Date for predictions of alevin and fry size, given egg size and developmental temperature, were derived from studies conducted in our laboratory (Appendix Table A.1), in which a constant temperature regime was main-

tained during development. When the preserved samples of alevins and fry were measured and weighed, fork length was recorded in our laboratory to the nearest 0. 1 mm, total weight was recorded to the nearest milligram, the yolk was separated from the rest of the body and weighed (mg), and tissue weight was determined by subtraction (total weight - yolk weight). Usually 30 alevins and 30 fry were sampled from each female at each constant temperature, and the means of each character examined were used in subsequent analyses. Because the original data were obtained from samples that had been preserved in 10% formalin, they were transformed to fresh sample length and weights by multiplying preserved, water-hardened egg weight by 0.86, alevin length by 1.03, alevin weight by 0.91, fry length by 1.05, and fry weight by 0.88 (Murray 1980). Four models were fitted to the alevin and fry length data. In all models, L was fork length (mm); T was temperature during development (°Q; W was fresh, water-hardened egg weight (mg); and a, b, c. and d were fitted constants. Temperatures included in the analysis were 1.5°C (coho salmon only); 2°C (coho and sockeye salmon); 4°C, 8°C, and 12°C (all species); and 1 5°C (all species except coho salmon). Data points were lengths and weights of alevins or fry by female at each temperature. The models were log^f +

The fit of each model to the observed data was evaluated by examining the proportion of total variation accounted for (R 2). We examined prediction of alevin and fry weight by models (13) and (14), with weight as the dependent variable. The relative effects of temperature and egg weight variation on subsequent alevin and fry size were investigated with the ANOVA model , + Wt + TW

Water temperatures after egg fertilization increase in spring-spawning species. In contrast to autumn-spawning Pacific salmonids, springspawning species (rainbow trout O. mykiss, grayling Thymallus thymallus) require fewer thermal units at high incubation temperatures than at low temperatures (Jungwirth and Winkler 1984). As development occurs under a warming temperature regime, increased water temperatures would probably indicate more favorable conditions for enhanced survival, and fry emergence would occur earlier. The differential responses of autumn and spring spawners to changes in water temperature during development likely reflect adaptations to the environmental conditions they encounter during development. Variation among Pacific salmon species was observed in development rate, embryo and alevin survival, and alevin and fry size when the same temperatures occurred during development. Coho salmon had the fastest development rate to hatching and emergence, the highest embryo survival at low temperatures during development, and the largest alevins and fry at 4°C, compared with warmer developmental temperatures. Coho salm-
on are also among the latest spawning of the species examined, and their apparent adaptation to

low water temperatures during development suggests that the species is adapted to spawning during late autumn and early winter. Pink salmon had relatively slow development rates, the poorest embryo survival at low water temperatures, and small alevins and fry at 4°C, compared with those that developed at 8°C. Pink salmon spawn early in autumn, and again the variation in characters associated with development suggest that the variation reflects adaptation to the species life history pattern. In British Columbia, development to fry emergence generally occurs at mean temperatures of 6°C or less in the natural environment. Coho and chum salmon are the latest-spawning species, and they generally had the fastest rates of development to fry emergence under temperature conditions likely encountered in the natural environment. Because the species showed different trends in emergence timing with respect to changes in development temperature, it seems reasonable to infer that these different trends reflect adaptive variation in the species9 response to environmental temperature during development. Populationspecific differences in development can also exist (Beacham and Murray 1987b; Tang et al. 1987), and populations that spawn in extreme environments can probably be expected to have different rates of development and survival than populations in more moderate environments. For example, chum salmon that spawn in the Yukon River have faster rates of development than comparable populations in British Columbia (Beacham et al. 1988). The development time to hatching has been reported to increase progressively for coho, chum, chinook, pink, and sockeye salmon (levleva 1951; Withlerand Morley 1970; Smirnov 1975; Murray and McPhail 1988). Our study showed that this is true for incubation temperatures above 5°C. At lower temperatures, the relative ranking of the species changes, and development time to hatching is slowest for chinook salmon at temperatures below 3°C The relative development rates among Pacific salmon species depend upon the temperature during development. Size of alevins and fry was clearly influenced by both the temperature experienced during development and the size of eggs from which they originated. We found that egg weight was usually the more important determinant of fry length and certainly of fry weight. Larger alevins and fry are generally derived from larger eggs (Smirnov 1975; Kazakov 1981; Wallace and Aasjord 1984). Size
of salmon alevins and fry may be important in determining subsequent growth and survival (Bams 1969; Fowler 1972), and if there is a fry size at emergence for optimal survival, then the appropriate initial egg weight can be selected and water temperature possibly controlled during development in order to produce fry of the optimum size. A substantial global warming is expected to occur in the next 50-100 years as a result of increased atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide and the subsequent climate change (Wigley et al. 1980; Pittock and Salinger 1982). Coho salmon appear to be the species that would be most significantly affected by such warming. They appear to be adapted for low water temperatures during development, and a trend of increasing temperatures during development would likely influence survival dramatically. Climate change may also reduce summer precipitation in the Pacific northwest portion of North America, and again this could have serious implications for survival of age-0 coho salmon. It might also be expected that the distributions of all species will shift northward. Acknowledgments We are indebted to Frank Velsen for his careful compilation of hatching time and embryo survival data (Velsen 1987), which provided the starting point for our analysis. Wally Earner supervised our previous laboratory analysis of variation in developmental characters of Pacific salmon, and also provided substantial support for the current analysis. The manuscript was substantially improved by the comments of referees and editors.
